Crunchyroll carries the series — with twenty-four episodes covering Anne's growth from childhood onward, it's a substantial, satisfying watch rather than a single-cour taste.

## Synopsis

On Prince Edward Island, the aging Cuthbert siblings send for an orphan boy to help around their farm, Green Gables. What arrives instead is Anne Shirley: red-haired, talkative beyond reason, and armed with an imagination that renames every pond and tree she passes. The mistake becomes a blessing. Across the series, Anne finds her first true friend, wages academic war on the infuriating Gilbert Blythe, and grows from a girl desperate to belong into a young woman deciding what her life should be — leaving for college and returning home changed.
